*Back when I was in love with things or so I thought I was far too agreeable to everyone And I often tasted the bitter sting when someone else forgot who I was But really what I didn't understand was the impermanence of things How my opportunities were limited And how I shouldn't care so much about what other people think I should've just breathed in and been exactly as I was meant to be How I should've savored the moments back then Before the truth of life could find me And sink my feet into reality*

Though it sounds like regret... It's really just retrospection. All is well. I did my best. I am at peace. But this was fun to write. LOL!
